The pretty blonde from Buckingham also has cataplexy - a condition which causes sudden muscle weakness, triggered by strong emotions. Cruelly, Annabelle was dumped by an ex-boyfriend after he was unable to cope with her erratic sleeping, but she has now found love with supportive partner Maikel Breukelman, 26.
